A Seasonal Affair

A frigid spell of arctic air 
adorns the tranquil western scene; 
a stunning glimpse of fall’s affair 
with spring’s vivacious flower queen. 

When autumn’s cooling wind combines 
with April's warming playful breeze, 
a whirling tempest paints designs 
on grounds of winter’s icy freeze. 

On sculptured hills of milky snows 
October's tepid finger strolls, 
and May's seductive blossom grows 
when rising mercury controls. 

Two heated seasons blend in time, 
creating havoc in the sky. 
Through swelling clouds of grey they climb 
releasing moisture as they fly. 

A blizzard raves across the path 
of spring and autumn’s torrid flight, 
and winter smiles in aftermath; 
they outperformed this glacial night.
